Terpenes are natural compounds found in various plants, including cannabis. They are responsible for giving each cannabis strain its unique aroma and flavor. Terpenes are not exclusive to cannabis and can also be found in fruits, herbs, and other botanicals.

When it comes to cannabis, terpenes play a crucial role in defining the overall experience and effects of different strains. They work in harmony with cannabinoids, such as THC and CBD, to create what is known as the entourage effect. This means that the combination of terpenes and cannabinoids produces a more comprehensive and enhanced effect on the body and mind.
